Just thought i'd post this - on 10mb here:

Thu, 1 Jun 2006 23:55:14 UTC

1st 512K took 23641 ms = 21.7 KB/sec, approx 179 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps
2nd 512K took 24125 ms = 21.2 KB/sec, approx 175 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps
3rd 512K took 21531 ms = 23.8 KB/sec, approx 196 Kbps, 0.19 Mbps
4th 512K took 25969 ms = 19.7 KB/sec, approx 162 Kbps, 0.16 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 178 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps


Think work must be going on at the mo, or something just died:erm:

[etccarmageddon]

same here - either the system is in meltdown or the speed tests are flooded.

[looselipsuk]

Don't think it is anything to do with the sped test being flooded. I just went to download a bunch of e-mails and gave up due to the time it was taking. I can send ok but here is my result from the Nottingham area and I also am on the 10Meg connection.

[Badders]

Same here. Usually I don't have a problem but it's dog-slow at the moment.

[Enuff]

I'm noticing it too... the modem send & recieve lights freezing, stuttering and my game servers are pinging real high and the packet loss is unreal! Web pages are taking yonks to load. ahhh well... Boing!

[Gareth]

Yeah, trying to play Counter Strike and gave up in the end due to ridiculously high pings :(

[Badders]

Dos?

[UncleBooBoo]

Well let's not waste any time or money calling NTL to report any fault or faults because all they will tell you is this:

"It is an 'UP TO' 10MB service"

:D

[Sherlock614]

True :rofl:

Nah - this is something different. Its affecting everyone. I haven't had a problem for years and a now I can only just connect to nthellworld.

Im in London and one of the poplar routers is shafted 25% PL and im pinging +200ms which means no games for me.

it started about 11pm i think.

Anyway just another problem with NTL for me.

[Sherlock614]

CH64 area here, still the same

I'm on 2mb and get this in Notts....

Looks like about the same speeds at the moment weather on 10mb or 2mb
My overall average speed is normaly very stable at 1.9 Mbps

Pinging 200ms+ to London still, same as earlier

There is a speed test at the top of the page, you could also try http://specials.zdnet.co.uk/misc/band-test/

still 200ms 25%PL and i dont actually dload from anywhere with those speeds more like
50Kb/s :disturbd:

somone fix tele-ic-1-so-700-0.inet.ntl.com its shagged !

tele-ic-1 has a long history of pinging highly, so long as the hops behind it don't ping high it's not really a problem :)

ok, oh dear. lol
